This week I drove a lovely 991.2 Carrera GTS, and man oh man was it a blast to drive the most powerful Carrera money can buy! To say that it was a sensational driving experience would be an understatement! I found myself only wanting more, and was sad to give it back :/

The 991.2 offers a slightly smaller footprint than the new 992, but much of the same engineering tech and a nearly identical power-plant. Even better, the 991.2 GTS' have depreciated just enough to make them more wallet friendly than brand new base 992. What do you get by swinging for the GTS? Aside from 450hp, you get everything you'd get on a Carrera S, plus a sporty body kit, sports exhaust, center lock wheels, and sports chrono ALL STANDARD!

Objectively the 992 is better, and Porsche has progressed just as we'd hope and expect... with that said, money is money, and I'm not sure I'd pay 50-60% more for a brand new 992 GTS (whenever it comes). To be fair, I would spend this same $100k~ish on a 997 GT3 instead: if I wanted an EVEN MORE visceral and certainly more analog driving experience.

But, balancing price, newness, performance, and experience... this car does it all and more, I'd just check out the 7speed manual as well !!
